When another has angered you, you have given them power. When another has disappointed you, you have given away your power. In both cases it is the same: giving power to another or giving away your own occurs each time you allow another’s actions to determine your emotions. Thoughts generally precede emotions. If you can maintain awareness of your thoughts—many of which are automatic, resulting from programmed habits—then you will gain far more mastery over your emotions and your state of peace.
You have immense power, but it is not the type that one human lords over another. It is the power of Life, itself, your lord and master, if you will, and it is Love. Let no other take that away from you. Why? For no other CAN take it away from you. It is an innate quality of the soul.
